The ruins of the sea water pool on the beach beneath the National Trust house Coleton Fishacre was the setting for our Sunday lunch.
Our departure was delayed by a successful surgery by Adrian on a seagull with a fish hook snagged in its mouth. It was not co-operative and prompted me to note to add two items to my first aid kit – a wire cutter and a beak clamp. The bird was already weak and may not survive. The beach is covered with discarded rope and netting and plastics. A miserable reminder of our trashing of the earth and its other inhabitants.
